Micah Parsons' contract negotiations with Cowboys 'getting personal'
Share this @internewscast.com

Micah Parsons is looking to be among the richest players in the NFL, but it appears Cowboys owner Jerry Jones and he aren’t seeing eye to eye.

The contract talks between the Cowboys and Parsons are falling apart, and things are “getting personal,” ESPN’s Adam Schefter reported Tuesday.

Parsons, 26, is in the final year of his rookie deal, after which he would likely be franchise tagged by the team.

“This sounds different to me. This sounds a little bit more personal from both sides,” Schefter said on the “Pat McAfee Show.”

“The discussions between the two parties have regressed rather than progressed. Currently, it appears they aren’t communicating much, if at all,” Schefter commented. “What used to be negotiations have stalled. At this point, there isn’t any active dialogue about finalizing an agreement.”

This comes as Jones took a shot at Parsons for not staying healthy last season.

“Just because we sign him doesn’t mean we’re going to have him,” Jones said last week. “He missed six games last year. Seriously.” 

Parsons missed four of the Cowboys’ 17 games last season, racking up 12 sacks.

Amidst this situation, Dallas managed to secure a contract with their tight end. Jake Ferguson finalized a four-year agreement valued at $52 million, with $30 million guaranteed.

Parsons hasn’t discussed the ongoing contract discussions since June, when he said he “understood that it’s up to [Jones].

Parsons has stood by as several of his fellow pass rushers were paid big money.

In March, Myles Garrett inked a massive contract with the Browns that, at the time, was the highest deal of any non-quarterback in NFL history.

Garrett had demanded a trade in February as tensions between the two teams escalated over his contract.

Previously, Steelers’ pass rusher T.J. Watt had skipped mandatory minicamp in June because of a contract disagreement. However, he eventually signed a substantial three-year deal worth $123 million, making it the biggest contract for a non-quarterback in NFL history.
